Grant GitHub App Access via Webhook

Sometimes you need to grant GitHub app access from outside Hubspot. Use a Notis webhook to trigger app access grants from any external system or integration.

Trigger

Webhook received

Notis starts this workflow when an external tool or custom backend sends an HTTP request.

Action

Add a repository to an app installation

Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.

Why this helps

You manually grant GitHub apps access to repositories. External systems can't trigger this action, creating manual work and delays.

  • Grant app access from any external tool or system via webhook
  • Flexible trigger sources beyond Hubspot integration events
  • Eliminates manual app permission grants
  • Enables complex multi-system workflows

Setup

Build it in a few focused steps.

  • 1Connect GitHub to Notis.
  • 2Ask Notis: 'Create a webhook automation that grants the [app name] access to [repository] when the webhook receives a request.'
  • 3Set up a Notis Webhook trigger and get the webhook URL.
  • 4Configure your external system to send a request to the Notis webhook URL.
  • 5Test by triggering the webhook from your external system and verifying app access is granted in GitHub.

Questions about this workflow

Can I pass parameters via the webhook?

Yes. You can include repository names, app names, and other details in the webhook payload, and Notis will use them.

Is the webhook secure?

Notis provides a unique webhook URL for each automation. Optionally, you can add a token for additional security.

What systems can trigger this webhook?

Any system that can make HTTP requests. Examples include custom backends, Zapier, Make, IFTTT, or internal tools.

List repositories starred by the authenticated user

Deprecated: lists repositories starred by the authenticated user, including star creation timestamps; use 'list repositories starred by the authenticated user' instead.

List stargazers

Deprecated: lists users who have starred a repository; use `list stargazers` instead.

Star a repository for the authenticated user

Deprecated: stars a repository for the authenticated user; use `star a repository for the authenticated user` instead.

ActionInstant

Add email for auth user

Adds one or more email addresses (which will be initially unverified) to the authenticated user's github account; use this to associate new emails, noting an email verified for another account will error, while an existing email for the current user is accepted.

ActionInstant

Add app access restrictions

Replaces github app access restrictions for an existing protected branch; requires a json array of app slugs in the request body, where apps must be installed and have 'contents' write permissions.

ActionInstant

Add a repository collaborator

Adds a github user as a repository collaborator, or updates their permission if already a collaborator; `permission` applies to organization-owned repositories (personal ones default to 'push' and ignore this field), and an invitation may be created or permissions updated directly.

ActionInstant

Add a repository to an app installation

Adds a repository to a github app installation, granting the app access; requires authenticated user to have admin rights for the repository and access to the installation.
